She Became Rich After Divorce (Cheyenne and Kelvin) novel Chapter 374

Chapter 374: I Want His Heart

Knowing that she was in a hurry, Kelvin pressed down on her restless shoulders, his warm hands holding her clenched and delicate fists.

"Cheyenne, I know you're anxious. Let's assess the situation first."

Her mind was filled with thoughts of how to rescue Jonathan.

Jonathan had witnessed the deaths of the six people in front of him, but he still stood in the middle of the stage, expressionless.

Although he was disheveled, he kept his back straight. His gaze was cold, waiting for the judgment that the executioner would impose on him. His indifferent posture seemed as if he were not the one about to die.

On this stage, they had witnessed many "tough guys," but when the knife was really placed at their necks, even tough guys could turn into the weak.

The executioner in black with a mask continued speaking, "This person attempted to investigate TWILIGHT's Misty Forest, which is a heinous crime."

As the words fell, the audience below the stage became even more uproarious.

Everyone knew that Misty Forest was a distinctive "product" of TWILIGHT, and if its secrets were exposed, TWILIGHT would suffer a significant loss and might even attract catastrophic consequences.

They clamored in various ways:

"Burn him alive!"

"Tie him to a cross; he betrayed the true Lord, nail him with spikes into his body!"

"Quarter him!"

"..."

Various cruel punishments were suggested, and the waves of voices almost drowned out the executioner's voice.

He raised his hand, and his sleeve slid down, revealing a section of his wrist. The string of rosewood beads on his wrist appeared in Cheyenne's eyes.

She was suddenly stunned.

She seemed to have seen it before.

Yes, she remembered she saw it in the car accident!

She picked up the bead at the scene, and it was the same bead that Eddie encountered during the attack, identical in every detail.

So, what connection existed between Soar Casino and TWILIGHT?

Cheyenne was certain that the person who led the attack on her last time was a young man. However, the voice from the stage sounded like someone around forty, with a slightly plump figure.

Different people but possessing the same bracelet.

Perhaps this bracelet, like the tattoo, was a symbol of identity.

"There's a saying: those who live by the sword will die by the sword. Since this old man is a medical practitioner, why don't we use this surgical knife as the instrument of punishment?"

As the executioner's words fell, someone quickly approached with a wooden tray. On it lay shining silver surgical knives, sharp as a blade.

The man took one with a narrow and long design, usually used for cutting deep-seated connective tissues.

Cheyenne's gaze fixed on the knife pressed against Mr. Owen's chest. The pure silver alloy blade was sharp enough to easily cut through bones, let alone the softer flesh tissue.

Jonathan still wore the white coat when he was arrested. Soon, Cheyenne noticed a red flower blooming on his chest, starkly contrasting against the white fabric.

The relentless voice of the judge echoed through the hall, questioning him, "Tell me, where did you obtain the Misty Forest?"
